"I feel like Katrina's death just didn't need to happen," Lavery said. Katrina Lavery died of a bowel obstruction on Jan. 1, 2018. (CLBC), the Crown agency that provides support for adults with developmental disabilities, also launched an investigation in the aftermath of Katrina's death. Lavery's claim alleges that beginning in May 2017, Katrina's belly became increasingly distended, and she started having more frequent seizures and high temperatures. CLBC has also denied all allegations of wrongdoing in Katrina's death in its response to Lavery's claim.
